Spiders are seen in greater numbers during summertime in Manitoba, even around the Winnipeg area. While most are harmless and avoid contact if possible, it is wise to be wary of the black widow, whose venom is quite potent and can cause severe damage.
Common Spiders: Sand Bear Wolf Spider, Cross Orb-weaver Spider
Large Spiders: Striped Fishing Spider, Dark Fishing Spider
Most Dangerous Spiders: Western Black Widow Spider, Hobo Spider
